Syllabus

Design Authoring - Federated Model

In this module, you will explore the concept and implementation of federated modeling in BIM. Starting with an introduction to federated models and the ISO 19650 standards for shared information, you will learn strategies and benefits associated with federated models in collaborative projects. Practical skills include linking Revit files, managing linked models, exporting files in various formats, and creating renders and animations to enhance project visualization and communication.

Design Authoring - Engineering Analysis

In the "Design Authoring - Engineering Analysis" module, you'll learn fundamental engineering analysis techniques using BIM. Topics include structural analysis for both static and dynamic considerations, energy analysis to optimize building efficiency, lighting analysis for interior lighting improvements, and comprehensive design review processes. This module provides essential skills to enhance building performance through BIM tools.

Visualization

The Visualization module teaches how to view and present models effectively in BIM. It covers creating different views, using visualization modes, navigating through models with walkthroughs and flythroughs, managing layers and properties, and exploring models in sections. It also includes using tablets and mobile devices for visualization, setting up BIM kiosks and rooms, and experiencing models in VR, MR, and AR through demos

Interference / Clash Check

The "Interference / Clash Check" module focuses on mastering clash detection and resolution in BIM projects. Participants will learn the fundamentals of clash checking, including types of clashes and clash avoidance strategies using federated models. The module covers detailed processes for clash detection, prioritization using matrices, defining clash detection rules, generating reports, and managing clashes effectively through grouping. Participants will also gain practical experience through comprehensive demos that illustrate real-world clash scenarios and resolution techniques using industry-standard tools and methodologies.

Level of Development (LOD)

In the "LOD - Level of Development" module, you'll learn about Level of Development (LOD) in BIM. This includes understanding LOD, Level of Detail, and Level of Information. The module covers practical examples like wall foundations, precast structures, and plumbing systems to illustrate LOD applications. You'll also explore LOD charts, matrices, and the Model Progression Matrix for better project communication and standardization in BIM.
